Install RZ Recovery on Galaxy Mini

ADVERTISEMENT

Users of the Galaxy Mini seem to be getting pampered with the luxury of choice. In addition to getting ClockworkMod Recovery for their device, they now also have another Custom Recovery- Raidzero recovery or RZrecovery to use on their Minis. XDA member squadzone has managed to port the well-known RaidZero recovery which was orginally developed by RaidZero for the original Droid, and subsequently ported to many other devices, including non-Moto devices.

So what’s special about this custom recovery, you may ask. Have a look at the the feature list below for yourself, and you’ll know what’s special :)

The last point , the ability to add plugins for a new menu is an interesting feature. It adds ability within the tool to perform different functions such as updating of APN settings & changing Boot animations.

There are a couple of limitations as well, but nothing that should keep you from using this excellent tool.

Warning: The steps and methods included in this guide are considered risky. Please do not attempt to try this unless you know exactly what you are doing, as it may render your device unusable, and your pocket lighter by the amount it takes to replace it. You have been forewarned!!!
